Always start with a counter of 0 for a new measurement report. If the
neigh_meas_avg is caluclated over the given window, the window is
reduced, if there are less measurement reports received so far.

It is desirable to allow configuring handover for each individual network cell.
At the same time, it is desirable to set global defaults.
Treat the 'network' node handover parameters as global defaults, add another
set of parameters for each individual BTS.
This raises questions on how the 'network' node should affect the individual
BTS. The simplistic solution would have been: on creating a BTS in the config,
just copy the current defaults; with serious drawbacks:
- tweaking any parameter in the telnet VTY on network node will never affect
any running BTS.
- network node defaults *must* be issued before the bts sections in the config
file.
- when writing a config back to file, we would copy all net node defaults to
each BTS node, making the network node configs pointless.
Instead, add a handover_cfg API that tracks whether a given node has a value
set or not. A bts node ho_cfg gets a pointer to the network node config and
returns those values if locally unset. If no value is set on any node, use the
"factory" defaults, which are hardcoded in the API. Only write back exactly
those config items that were actually issued in a config file / on the telnet
VTY. (ho_cfg API wise, we could trivially add another ho_cfg level per TRX if
we so desire in the future.)
Implement ho parameters as an opaque config struct with getters and setters to
ensure the tracking is always heeded. Opaqueness dictates allocating instead of
direct embedding in gsm_network and gsm_bts structs, ctx is gsm_net / bts.
This is 100% backwards compatible to
old configs.
- No VTY command syntax changes (only the online help).
- If a 'bts' sets nothing, it will use the 'network' defaults.
- The 'show network' output only changes in presence of individual BTS configs.
On 'show network', say "Handover: On|Off" as before, iff all BTS reflect
identical behavior. Otherwise, output BTS counts of handover being enabled or
not.
Use the same set of VTY commands (same VTY cmd syntax as before) on network and
BTS nodes, i.e. don't duplicate VTY code. From the current vty->node, figure
out which ho_cfg to modify.
For linking, add handover_cfg.c (the value API) in libcommon, while the
handover_vty.c is in libbsc. This is mainly because some utility programs use
gsm_network and hence suck in the ho stuff, but don't need the VTY commands.
Review the VTY online help strings.
Add VTY transcript test for handover options, testing config propagation from
network to bts nodes, 'show network' output and VTY online help strings.
(Needs recent addition of '... !' wildcard to osmo_interact_common.py.)
I considered leaving parts of this more readable, but in the end decided for
heavy use of macros to define and declare the API, because more values will be
added in upcoming patches and I want to prevent myself from messing them up.
Inspired-by: jolly/new_handover branch, which moves the config to 'bts' level

Handover attempt for power budget case should be performed every N SACCH frames,
where N = Power Budget Interval.
First measurement report with mr->nr = 0 was used for the first handover attempt
in this case, which is not correct, because first usable report should have
mr->nr = net->handover.pwr_interval-1.
Moreover using the first measurement report with mr->nr = 0 for handover attempt
could lead to unnecessary handover, because usually av_rxlev for first measurement report
from MS is worse than for following reports.

Disable large parts of the code that depend on BSC presence. The code sections
disabled by #if BEFORE_MSCSPLIT shall be modified or dropped in the course of
adding the A-interface.
Don't set msg->lchan nor msg->dst.
Don't use lchan in libmsc.
Decouple lac from bts.
Prepare entry/exit point for MSC -> BSC and MSC -> RNC communication:
Add msc_ifaces.[hc], a_iface.c, with a general msc_tx_dtap() to redirect to
different interfaces depending on the actual subscriber connection.
While iu_tx() is going to be functional fairly soon, the a_tx() is going to be
just a dummy for some time (see comment).
Add Iu specific fields in gsm_subscriber_connection: the UE connection pointer
and an indicator for the Integrity Protection status on Iu (to be fully
implemented in later commits).
Add lac member to gsm_subscriber_connection, to allow decoupling from
bts->location_area_code. The conn->lac will actually be set in iu.c in an
upcoming commit ("add iucs.[hc]").
move to libcommon-cs: gsm48_extract_mi(), gsm48_paging_extract_mi().
libmsc: duplicate gsm0808 / gsm48 functions (towards BSC).
In osmo-nitb, libmsc would directly call the functions on the BSC level, not
always via the bsc_api. When separating libmsc from libbsc, some functions are
missing from the linkage.
Hence duplicate these functions to libmsc, add an msc_ prefix for clarity, also
add a _tx to gsm0808_cipher_mode():
* add msc_gsm0808_tx_cipher_mode() (dummy/stub)
* add msc_gsm48_tx_mm_serv_ack()
* add msc_gsm48_tx_mm_serv_rej()
Call these from libmsc instead of
* gsm0808_cipher_mode()
* gsm48_tx_mm_serv_ack()
* gsm48_tx_mm_serv_rej()
Also add a comment related to msc_gsm0808_tx_cipher_mode() in two places.
Remove internal RTP streaming code; OsmoNITB supported that, but for OsmoMSC,
this will be done with an external MGCP gateway.
Remove LCHAN_MODIFY from internal MNCC state machine.
Temporarily disable all paging to be able to link libmsc without libbsc.
Skip the paging part of channel_test because the paging is now disabled.
Employ fake paging shims in order for msc_vlr_tests to still work.
msc_compl_l3(): publish in .h, tweak return value. Use new libmsc enum values
for return val, to avoid dependency on libbsc headers. Make callable from
other scopes: publish in osmo_msc.h and remove 'static' in osmo_msc.c
add gsm_encr to subscr_conn
move subscr_request to gsm_subscriber.h
subscr_request_channel() -> subscr_request_conn()
move to libmsc: osmo_stats_vty_add_cmds()
gsm_04_08: remove apply_codec_restrictions()
gsm0408_test: use NULL for root ctx
move to libbsc: gsm_bts_neighbor()
move to libbsc: lchan_next_meas_rep()
move vty config for t3212 to network level (periodic lu)
remove unneccessary linking from some tests
remove handle_abisip_signal()
abis_rsl.c: don't use libvlr from libbsc
gsm_subscriber_connection: put the LAC here, so that it is available without
accessing conn->bts. In bsc_api.c, place this lac in conn for the sake of
transition: Iu and A will use this new field to pass the LAC around, but in a
completely separate OsmoBSC this is not actually needed. It can be removed
again from osmo-bsc.git when the time has come.
Siemens MRPCI: completely drop sending the MRPCI messages for now, they shall
be added in osmo-bsc once the A-Interface code has settled. See OS#2389.

This is the first step in creating this repository from the legacy openbsc.git.
Like all other Osmocom repositories, keep the autoconf and automake files in
the repository root. openbsc.git has been the sole exception, which ends now.
